Moonstrips (Onion-Poppy) Matzo Brei

Passover always puts me in a Moonstrips frame of mind. What are Moonstrips? They're onion and poppy-flavored matzos made by Streit's and they are the tastiest matzos ever. They don't make a kosher for Passover version, but this matzo brei (matzo pancake-style omelet) tastes good any time of the year. This particular matzo brei recipe is adapted from The Jewish Holiday Kitchen by Joan Nathan.

Taking spoonfuls of batter at a time, fry in the butter or chicken fat, patting the center down a bit. If you want larger matzo pancakes, just add more batter each time. Fry until golden brown on one side, then turn and fry on the other.
